Decentralized data broadcasting in a distributed network

Abstract

A method for publishing a data message to shared storage includes receiving an action targeting a user associated with a distributed network having a plurality of service providers. Each service provider includes a private storage system and has access to a shared storage system. The method also includes parsing data elements of the action into a first set of data elements and a second set of data elements. The method further includes classifying the first set of data elements into categories of a data taxonomy. The method additionally includes generating a message for the action where the message includes the first set of data elements. The method also includes publishing the message to the shared storage system using a first identifier indicating the user and a second identifier that indicates that a respective service provider associated with the action has authority to publish the message to the shared storage system.

The invention claimed is: 
     
       1. A system comprising:
 data processing hardware; and 
 memory hardware, wherein the memory hardware is configured to store instructions that, when executed by the data processing hardware, cause the data processing hardware to perform operations, and wherein the operations include:
 receiving an action targeting a user associated with a distributed network, wherein:
 the distributed network includes a plurality of service providers and a persistent shared data storage system, and 
 each service provider of the plurality of service providers includes a private data storage system and has access to the persistent shared data storage system; 
 
 parsing data elements of the action to offload at least some of the data elements into the private data storage system associated with a respective service provider to minimize storage in the persistent shared data storage system by:
 parsing the data elements of the action into a first set of data elements corresponding to a first category of data elements and a second set of data elements corresponding to a second category of data elements, wherein:
 the first category of data elements corresponds to data elements that produce a private storage message, and 
 the second category of data elements corresponds to data elements that produce a shared storage message; 
 
 
 classifying the first set of data elements into categories of a data taxonomy specified by the persistent shared data storage system; 
 generating a data storage message for the action, wherein the data storage message includes the first set of data elements classified into the categories of the data taxonomy; and

       6. The system of  claim 1 , wherein the data storage message published to the persistent shared data storage system is broadcasted to each service provider of the plurality of service providers enrolled to receive data storage messages published to the persistent shared data storage system targeting the user. 
     
     
       7. The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the action is generated by a healthcare service provider of the plurality of service providers: 
 the action corresponds to a proposed improvement in at least one of a set of medical services and a set of medical goods provided to the user by the healthcare service provider; and 
 the healthcare service provider is associated with the respective service provider. 
 
     
     
       8. The system of  claim 7 , wherein the action is performed in response to a prior action provided to the user by the respective service provider. 
     
     
       9. The system of  claim 7 , wherein:
 the action is associated with an opportunity action for the user; and 
 the opportunity action includes a status state that tracks or identifies interaction by the user with the opportunity action. 
 
     
     
       10. The system of  claim 9 , wherein the status state includes at least one of:
 an identified status that indicates an existence of an opportunity action for the user; 
 an offered status that indicates the opportunity action has been presented to the user; 
 a viewed status that indicates the user has seen the opportunity action; 
 a rejected status that indicates the user has taken an affirmative action to deny the opportunity action; 
 a completed status to indicate the user has reached an intended outcome or the opportunity action has reached its end of life; and 
 an expired status that indicates the opportunity action is no longer available to the user. 
 
     
     
       11. The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the operations further include assigning an action identifier to the action; and 
 the data storage message further includes the action identifier. 
 
     
     
       12. The system of  claim 1 , wherein the first category of data elements corresponds to at least one of personal information and personal health information associated with the user.
